Kings Point Sailing on the West Coast

We've got two upcoming events in the Los Angeles area- The first event, The 2010 Cal Maritime LA Harbor Cup will be held March 12-14. We are putting together a group of Dinghy and Offshore Sailors who we hope will be able to get over the jetlag and perform better than our last west coast trip two years ago. Then on May 14-16 we will send some of our younger Dinghy Team members to the Balboa Yacht Club Youth Match Race Regatta. With the recent format change to the Intercollegiate Sloop Nationals, we are looking to develop the match racing skills of some of our sailors- especially as Kings Point will be hosting the inaugural event this fall. Any LA locals who would like to help our sailors out with housing or a van for either of these events would be greatly appreciated!
